Flash/program ECM/ECU to eliminate PATS query???

Man oh man... After 205k fairly trouble free miles (engine rebuild at 130k), my '99 Expy is putting me through the ringer!!!

Latest fiasco was a flashing "theft" light that left us stranded waaaaay out of town... Now after sitting 2 weeks with the battery dead, the truck fires right up... During the initial investigation I ran across info that "something" ECU? ECM? can be flashed/software recoded to eliminate the PATS query... There was a member who offered this service... Now I can't find the info... Possibly it was on the F150 forum too...

Does anybody know ???

For info on the specifics of the no-start flashing theft light fiasco, details are here...

Thanks for your help!!!

Multiple threads for the same issue muck up the board and confuse the issue.

Sorry to muck up the boards... Merge if desired.. I thought they were two different avenues to the same problem...

Apologies...
